Why does our system work?
- Cell size of bee honey comb
- The natural arrangement of the combs in the beehive
- The importance of the drones or the true heroes in the beehive
- The nutrition of the bees
- advantages of small cell bees
- Unlimited broodnest
- How does our small cell bee defend herself against the Varroa mites?
- Hygienic behavior of the bees
- swarm tendency is very reduced in small cell bees with Housel positioning of combs
- Instructions for breeding Varroa resistant bees
- scientific research: smaller cell size can have an impact on Varroa reproductive success
- Intelligence of the bees, brood nest temperature and cell size – scientific research
- Does the dronebrood act as a Varroa trap in small cell bees?
- advantages of small cell bees
- clear advantage over Varroa mites – the incubation period of small cell bees is shortened by one day
- small cell bees live longer, a scientific study proves it
- advantage of small cell bees – dronebrood all the active season through
- Small cell bees can fly into smaller flowers
- big advantage of small cells – tracheal mites cannot enter in the interior of the bees
- study: longer life span of worker honeybees reared in colonies kept on small-cell combs
- scientific study: hygienic behavior can be intensified by transferring colonies onto small-cell combs
- big advantage – extended flight times of small cell bees
- How does our small cell bee defend herself against the Varroa mites?
- sensational video – active Varroa defense – bees biting mites
- discovered a new good behavior of the bees for Varroa control
- In this way small cell bees fight against Varroa mites – Investigation of survivor colonies
